CLASSIFICATION: COGNITIVE ARCHITECTURE UPGRADE

CODENAME: BOOLEAN ORACLE


SITUATION REPORT — Before v0.7.0

The swarm operated on faith. Each subsystem — Byzantine validation, trust tracking, quarantine, gossip, GBP fusion, pheromone fields, and order parameters — processed its slice of reality independently. A Byzantine rejection didn't erode trust. A silent peer wasn't noticed. Contradictory pheromones coexisted peacefully. The inference pipeline was feed-forward: data in, decisions out, no introspection.

The swarm couldn't detect when it was lying to itself.


UPGRADE MANIFEST

System Status Description
Epistemic Evidence Graph ONLINE Fixed-topology network connecting 7 subsystem nodes
Feedback Loop Closure ONLINE 6 causal circuits flowing backwards through time
Structural Memory ONLINE Edge reliability via EMA, auto-pruning
XOR-Triggered Forgetting ONLINE Partial belief reset when certainty becomes the problem
NOR Vacuum Detection ONLINE Silence is data — absent signals trigger alerts
XAI Trace Integration ONLINE The swarm can explain why it doubted

Boolean Gate Semantics

Boolean gates are not computational shortcuts — they are epistemic mode selectors that tell the Bayesian layer what kind of evidence it's looking at:

Gate Symbol Meaning
XOR Two oracles disagree. Widen uncertainty. Investigate.
XNOR Two oracles agree. How independent are they?
NOR An oracle went silent. What does absence mean?
NAND Forbidden state reached. Full stop.

Feedback Loops Closed

Byzantine.Reject  ──XOR──► Trust(kinematic, −0.05)
Byzantine.Accept  ──XNOR─► Trust(integrity, +0.02)
NOR(silent_peer)  ──Vacuum► GBP prior reset (α=0.3) + gossip fanout↑
Quarantine.fear   ────────► Strike threshold relaxation in combat
Pheromone(Target∧Doubt) ─► Deposit cap modulation
OrderParams(chaos) ──────► Escalation protocol

SAFETY INVARIANTS — VERIFIED

  • CBF/GCBF+ barrier functions — UNTOUCHED
  • ROE engagement gate — UNTOUCHED
  • Particle filter step()UNTOUCHED
  • Trust deltas clamped to [-0.1, +0.05] per tick
  • Evidence graph DISABLED by default
  • NaN propagation blocked at all entry points
  • Prior reset partial only (α=0.3), never full wipe

"Before this upgrade, the swarm had sensors and actuators. Now it has something closer to doubt — and doubt, properly channeled, is the beginning of intelligence."
